OXAZOLIDINONE DERIVATIVES AS ANTIMICROBIALS

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to certain substituted phenyl oxazolidinones and to processes for the synthesis of the same. This invention¹ also relates to pharmaceutical compositions containing the compounds of the present invention as antimicrobials. The compounds are useful antimicrobial agents, effective against a number of human and veterinary pathogens, including gram-positive aerobic bacteria such as multiply-resistant staphylococci, streptococci and enterococci as well as anaerobic organisms such as Bacterioides spp. and Clostridia spp. species, and acid fast organisms such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Mycobacterium avium and Mycobacterium spp.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Increasing antibacterial resistance in Gram positive bacteria has presented a formidable treatment problem. The enterococci, although traditionally non virulent pathogens, have been shown, when associated with Vancomycin resistance, to have an attributable mortality of approximately 40%. Staphylococcus aureus, the traditional pathogen of post operative wounds, has been resistant to Penicillin due to production of penicillinases. This resistance was overcome by the development of various penicillinase

stable β lactams. But the pathogen responded by synthesizing a modified target penicillin

binding protein- 2' leading to less affinity for β lactam antibiotics and a phenotype known

as Methicillin Resistant S. aureus (MRS A). These strains, till recently were susceptible to Vancomycin, which inspite of its various drawbacks, has become the drug of choice for MRSA infections. Streptococcus pneumoniae is a major pathogen causing pneumonia, sinusitis and meningitis. Until very recently it was highly susceptible to penicillin. Recently though, different PBP 2' strains with different susceptibility to penicillin have been reported from across the globe.

Oxazolidinones are a new class of synthetic antimicrobial agents which kill gram positive pathogens by inhibiting a very early stage of protein synthesis. Oxazolidinones inhibit the formation of ribosomal initiation complex involving 30S and 50S ribosomes leading to prevention of initiation complex formation. Due to their novel mechanism of action, these compounds are active against pathogens resistant to other clinically useful antibiotics.

For preparing pharmaceutical compositions from the compounds described by this invention, inert, pharmaceutically acceptable carriers can be either solid or liquid. Solid form preparations include powders, tablets, dispersible granules, capsules, cachets, suppositories, and ointments. A solid carrier can be one or more substances which may also act as diluents, flavouring agents, solubilizers, lubricants, suspending agents, binders, or tablets disintegrating agents; it can also be as finely divided solid which is in admixture with the finely divided active compound. For the preparation of tablets, the active compound is mixed with carrier having the necessary binding properties in suitable proportions and compacted in the shape and size desired. The powders and tablets preferably contain from about 5 to about 70 percent of the active ingredient. Suitable solid carriers are lactose, pectin, dextrin, starch, gelatin, tragacanth, low melting wax, cocoa butter, and the like. The term "preparation" is intended to include the formulation of the active compound with encapsulating material as carrier providing a capsule in which the active component (with or without other carriers) is surrounded by carrier, which is thus in association with it. Similarly, capsules can be used as solid dosage forms suitable for oral administration.

Liquid form preparations include solutions, suspensions, and emulsions. As an example may be mentioned water or water-propylene glycol solutions for parenteral injection. Such solutions are prepared so as to be acceptable to biological systems (isotonicity, pH, etc.). Liquid preparations can also be formulated in solution in aqueous polyethylene glycol solution. Aqueous solutions suitable for oral use can be prepared by dissolving the active component in water and adding suitable colorants, flavours, stabilizing, and thickening agents as desired. Aqueous suspension suitable for oral use can be made by dispersing the finely divided active component in water with viscous material, i.e., natural or synthetic gums, resins, methyl cellulose, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, and other well-known suspending agents.

Ointment preparations contain heavy metal salts of a compound of Formula I with a physiologically acceptable carrier. The carrier is desirably a conventional water- dispersible hydrophilic or oil-in-water carrier, particularly a conventional semi-soft or cream-like water-dispersible or water soluble, oil-in-water emulsion infected surface with a minimum of discomfort. Suitable compositions may be prepared by merely incorporating or homogeneously admixing finely divided compounds with the hydrophilic carrier or base or ointment.

Preferably, the pharmaceutical preparation is in unit dosage form. In such form, the preparation is subdivided into unit doses containing appropriate quantities of the active component. The unit dosage form can be a packaged preparation, the package containing discrete capsules, powders in vials or ampoules, and ointments capsule, cachet, tablet, gel, or cream itself or it can be the appropriate number of any of these packaged forms.

The quantity of active compound in a unit dose of preparation may be varied or adjusted from less than 1 mg to 100 mg according to the particular application and the potency of the active ingredient.

In therapeutic use as agents for treating bacterial infections the compounds utilized in the pharmaceutical method of this invention are administered at the initial dosage of about 3 mg to about 40 mg per kilogram daily. The dosages, however, may be varied depending upon the requirements of the patient and the compound being employed. Determination of the proper dosage for a particular situation is within the smaller dosages which are less than the optimum dose. Small increments until the optimum effect under the daily dosage may be divided and administered in portions during the day if desired.

In order to achieve the above mentioned objects in accordance with the purpose of the invention as embodied and broadly described herein, there are provided process for the synthesis of compounds of Formulae I, II, III and IN. Pharmaceutically acceptable non-toxic acid addition salts of the compounds of the present invention of Formulae I, II, III and IN may be formed with inorganic or organic acids, by methods well known in the art.

The present invention also includes within its scope prodrugs of the compounds of

Formulae I, π, HI and IN. In general, such prodrugs will be functional derivatives of these compounds which readily get converted in vivo into defined compounds. Conventional procedures for the selection and preparation of suitable prodrugs are known.

The invention also includes pharmaceutically acceptable salts, the enantiomers, diastereomers, Ν-oxides, prodrugs, metabolites in combination with pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and optionally included excipient.

Other objects and advantages of the invention will be set forth in the description which follows, and in part will be apparent from the description, or may be learned by the practice of the invention. The objects and the advantages of the invention may be released and obtained by means of the mechanism and combination pointed out in the appended claims.

-(S)-N-[[3-[3[Fluoro-4-(N-l-homopiperazinyl)phenyl]-2-oxo-5-oxazolidinyl]- methyl] acetamide (core V),

were used for analoguing purposes.

Key intermediate amines of Formula V for the analogue preparation were prepared from commercially available reagents wherein G in amines of Formula V is defined as NH, CH(NHR), -CH-CH₂NHR wherein R is H, ethyl, methyl, isopropyl, acetyl, cyclopropyl, alkoxy, or acetyl and U, V, Y and Z are as defined for Formula II. Some amines of Formula V are afready known in the literature and are given by reference and if they have been made for the first time or by a different procedures or variation of known procedure they are described in detail in the experimental section.

Optically pure amines of Formula V could be obtained either by one of a number of asymetric syntheses or alternatively by resolution from a racemic mixture by selective crystallization of a salt prepared, with an appropriate optically active acid such as dibenzoyl tartrate or 10-camphorsulfonic acid, followed by treatment with base to afford the optically pure amine.

The compounds of the present invention represented by general Formula I may be prepared by the method of reaction in Scheme I: SCHEME-I

FORMULA V

FORMULA I

In Scheme I, the heteroaromatic group with the conesponding appendage can be infroduced on the nitrogen atom of ring C of compounds of Formula V by one of the methods described below to given Formula I, wherein Rι is a suitable leaving group well known to one of ordinary skill in the art such as fluoro, chloro, bromo, SCH₃, -SO₂CH₃, - SO2CF3 or OC₆H₅ etc. and G in amines of Formula N is defined as ΝH, CH(ΝHRι₃), - CH-CH₂NHRi₃ wherein R₁3 is H, ethyl, methyl, isopropyl,acetyl, cyclopropyl,, alkoxy or acetyl U, V, Y and Z are as defined for Formula I earlier.

Amine of structure of Formula V is reacted with a heteroaromatic compound of

Formula R-T-W-Rι₂ wherein R, T, W are the same as defined for Formula I earlier. For the preparation of compounds of Formula I when W is equal to CH conesponding aldehyde can be used through a process of reductive animation and is attached to amine of Formula V.

Similarly, for the preparation of compound of Formula I wherein W is equal to

C = O conesponding acid can be used and the amino of Formula V can be acylated through activated esters in the presence of condensing agents such as 1,3- dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC) and l-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-3-ethylcarbodiimide (EDC). Other methods of acylation can also be employed.

Alternatively, the compounds having carbonyl link can also be made by reacting heteroaromatic compound of the Formula VI

FORMULA VI such as N- methyl pyrrole with the intermediate amine of Formula V in the presence of triphosgene or phosgene. Carbonyl linkers may also be introduced between heteroaromatic compound such as 3- bromothiophene and amine of Formula V with carbon monoxide and the catalyst such as Pd (PPh3)₂Cl₂. Extended chain pynoles having dicarbonyl linkers can also be obtained from treatment with oxalyl chloride and amine of the Formula V.

The reduction of the carbonyl linkers using the standard reducing agents results in the formation of methylene linkers.

Preparation of the compound of Formula I as represented by Formula II (where heterocycle is 5 membered ring) is accomplished as exemplified below by three methods

FORMULA II Method A:

Amine of structure N is reacted with a heteroaromatic compound of Formula NI having Rι₂ as a suitable leaving group defined earlier for Scheme I. Q, P and M are as defined for Formula II.

The reaction is done in a suitable solvent such as dimethylformamide, dimethylacetamide, ethanol or ethylene glycol at a suitable temperature in the range of - 70°C to 180°C to afford compounds of Formula I. The presence of a suitable base such as triethylamine, diisopropyl amine, potassium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate is useful in some cases to improve the yield of the reaction.

Method B:

Reductive alkylation of the amine intermediate of Formula V, with the conesponding heterocyclic aldehydes of the Formula VI, such as furaldehyde (Q, P = H,

M=O; R12 is CHO) using known reducing agents well known to one of ordinary skill in the art such as sodium triacetoxyborohydride or sodium cyanoborohydride gave the products of Formula II wherein W=CH₂ as shown in the Scheme II.

Method C :

Acylation of intermediate amines of Formula V with heterocyclic acid of Formula VI, such as 2- furoic acid ( Q,P = H; M=O, Rι₂ =COOH) gave products of Formula II, wherein W=CO, as shown in the Scheme II wherein U, V, Y, Z, X, W, M, P, Q and R_u are the same. -(S)-N[[3-[3-Fluoro-4-[N-l[4-(5-nitro-2-thienoyl)]piperazinyl]phenyl]2-oxo-5- oxazolidinyljmethyl] acetamide hydrochloride was prepared using this method.

Alternatively, the compounds having carbonyl link can also be made by reacting heteroaromatic compound of the Formula VI such as N- methyl pyrrole with the intermediate amine of Formula V in the presence of triphosgene or phosgene. Carbonyl linkers may also be introduced between heteroaromatic compound such as 3- bromothiophene and amine of Formula V with carbon monoxide and the catalyst such as Pd ( PPh ₃)₂C1₂.

The in vitro antibacterial activity of the compounds were demonstrated by the agar incorporation method (NCCLS M 7 and M 100-S8 documents). Briefly, the compounds were dissolved in DMSO and doubling dilution of the compounds were incorporated into Meuller Hilton agar before solidification. Inoculum was prepared by suspending 4 to 5 colonies into 5 ml of normal saline solution and adjusting the

turbility to 0.5 Macfarland turbidity standard tables (1.5 x 10^ CFU/ml), after

appropriate dilutions, 10^ CFU/spot was fransfered into the surface of dried plate and incubated for 18 hours (24 hours for MRSN studies). The concentration showing no growth of the inoculated culture was recorded as the MIC. Appropriate ATCC standard strains were simultaneously tested and result recorded only when the MIC's against standard antibiotics were within the acceptable range.
